Saturday Snapshot 15

Hey everyone! So for today let’s just pretend this is called the Sunday Snapshot… at this rate I may just need to rename the whole series, haha.

So this week I continued with my normal schedule of wander around Paris, meet up with bloggers and take photos. But there was one twist- it snowed!

On the way to met Kristen from The Kale Project at the Hotel Amour (how romantic! haha) I came across the very charming Place Saint-Georges. Sometimes I come across new areas in Paris and it reminds me that I live in an absolutely beautiful city.

A few days later I revisited the Place Saint-Georges but this time it had undergone a slight but quite exciting change – snow! I had never seen snow in Paris (I’m told it’s a very uncommon occurrence) so it was fun to experience the city in a new and wintry way.

I also visited the Gustave Moreau museum this week. Moreau was a French symbolist painter who loved mythological and biblical figures- as a self-admitted Greek mythology nerd I enjoyed finding my favorite myths in the paintings.

While wandering Montmartre I would spy the Sacre Coeur peeking out from around corners like this one…

Snow in Paris! Unbelievable! And so pretty! Love photo D!
(FYI, a friend of mine just came back from Istanbul and they had a lot of snow there too. So apparently, you’re seeing pretty much whole Europe with a picturesque white cover this winter! :) )Julika recently posted..The Beauty of Budapest
